All too often our western diet, busy lifestyles and modern farming methods mean we get too little nutritional value from our food. Clinical studies carried out by the universities of Utah and Ukraine have proven that green food formulae decrease the body’s biological age significantly. For example, studies found that high levels of Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), one of the world’s most powerful antioxidants, may lower biological cell age by an astonishing 13.5 years over the course of three months. The discernible effects of this typically include a healthy, vibrant glow and the reduction in the outward signs of ageing.
The Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity, ORAC, is a unit of measurement of antioxidant strength. A good quality green food with a high ORAC value per serving can help to repair the damage caused by free radicals and ensure that the body has all the essential nutrients it needs for younger looking skin.
The scientific community agrees that the body creates between 3,800 – 5,000 ORAC units of damage per day just in the course of normal daily life. It is estimated that an athlete who is in full time training can create up to 10,000 ORAC units a day of damage, whilst somebody who is undergoing chemotherapy as a treatment for cancer, or similar, can create up to 12,000 units plus of damage at a cellular level.
The independent British Health and Beauty company, Xenca, has developed a new formulation, containing 22 natural ingredients. Called Five a Day +V – it has an ORAC value of about 1200 units per serving. It is also suitable for all ages, including children and infants. Each recommended serving of this powerful green supplement provides the nutritional equivalent of 5 – 7 servings of fresh fruit and vegetables in one teaspoon! At less than 12 calories per serving and with no sugar, artificial additives, preservatives or colourings, Five a Day +V is a convenient way of guaranteeing a healthy intake of natural enzymes, vitamins, minerals, proteins and antioxidants. Among its many reported health benefits, this natural food supplement has been found to boost energy, aid detoxification, improve recovery and improve mental concentration. It may also lower cholesterol and produce a measurable reduction in biological age.
